Fortnite's Next Season: "Wanted" – A Heist-Themed Adventure

Epic Games has unveiled the Battle Pass skins for Fortnite's upcoming season, aptly titled "Wanted." This heist-themed season promises high-octane action, featuring villainous characters, gold-laden getaway vehicles, and explosive bank vault heists.

Breaking from previous season naming conventions, "Wanted" dives straight into the action. The season kicks off on February 21st and boasts a thrilling collaboration with the Mortal Kombat franchise. Sub-Zero will be a featured Battle Pass skin, perfectly complementing the season's robbery theme.

This crossover coincides with the marketing campaign for Mortal Kombat 2, the upcoming film starring Karl Urban and Adeline Rudolph.

Skins will be priced at 1,500 V-Bucks each.

Returning weaponry includes the Flare Gun, C4, and the Diplomat turret. While other weapons remain unannounced, speculation based on Chapter 4 Season 4 (the previous heist-themed season) suggests the possible return of the EMP Grenade, classic SMGs, the Tommy Gun, and even the Grappler. These, however, are currently unconfirmed.

A highly anticipated new feature is Smart Building, a system that anticipates your building needs based on your aiming direction.

The heist theme extends to gameplay mechanics. Keycards are replaced by vault breaches, requiring Meltanite (a Fortnite equivalent of thermite) to access the loot within.
